Excellent dog work!!!! I’m originally a rabbit hunter, now turned bird hunter. I have a two year old Chocolate Lab. So now I enjoy the best of upland hunting, rabbits and birds!
I hope this generation of young people recognize the need, the importance, and the fun of hunting upland game! Not just protecting what’s left but, expanding suitable range!!!
EXCELLENT!!!!!! I spend Sept and Oct there every year!!! With the extremely high grain prices,I hope the is some grass left out there!!!!!
Awesome thanks for sharing,great shooting and great dog work as well.
Thanks man 👊🏻
Love your channel!!great vids and and great dog work!!!!!
Great to hear John! Thanks so much for following along.
Good Videos on the Open Prairie1
Your dogs remind me of my 2 old brittany's Tex and Liz best bird dogs I ever owned God I miss them
I'm sure you have many fond memories following Tex and Liz in the field. Thanks for following along Kirk.
Nice video man!
Britts are the shit! Lil firecrackers on birds, yours are dialed!
Big hell yeah to that! Thanks man!

I’m interested in your dogs and if you ever have any puppies for sale . Thanks
Truly great video and the dog work is top notch. Would it be out of the question for me to chat with you more about bird hunting in MT?
Doesn't get much better than that.
So sad that sage grouse/hens are so few now compared to the past. I loved hunting them when I was growing up in southern Idaho. Hunting with good dogs is and was the ultimate luxery .
Agreed, unfortunately it seems to be where the world is heading for all our beloved upland birds.
very nice video!
Thanks Philip 👊🏻
Made that trip three times last year. Very very dry, so we limited our bird dog hunting to the first and last few hours.
I always enjoy your videos your buddy’s T shirt my drinking buddy is my dog I thought was great. Is there any specific reason you didn’t train your dogs to be steady to wing and shot? I was just curious some do and some don’t so I was just wondering. Looking forward to your next video.
New sub ! Thanks for the content
Appreciate that! Thanks for following along.
Hey Uplander, I love your videos. Love the Brittanys, too. I'm planning a trip to MT next fall with my two Britts. Would you recommend going Sept 1 for the opener, or waiting until mid-Sept or later to wait until the temperatures come down a bit?
nice dogs
thank you!
Nice work! How much water you carrying, humans and for dogs?
64oz total. (2) Gatorade Squeeze bottles that are 32oz each.
I'm assuming this is somewhere in eastern Montana? Did you guys see snakes this time of year? Also where are the Britts out of?
No snakes. Once you start walking around you get more comfortable with it and realize they’re not next to every rock. Even run ins for locals is pretty rare. Shoot me and email if you wanna talk dogs and here more about our Brit’s - uplander18@gmail.com
Thanks and good luck this season!
What’s the best location in montane hunt these birds. Thanks u have great dogs man
Thanks man! There's plenty of birds to be found state wide in MT.
Video was great. Are these American or French Brittany’s?
Thanks Carson, they are American.
what is the name of the song 15:24
Nice Britts! What's their breeding?
Thanks Ron! All 3 comes from long lines of Nstra Champs and HOF brits. They are not from Sunburst Brits.
@@UplanderLifestyle Love to catch up with you sometime. We do a road trip or two every fall with our Britts. I took a couple of young dogs with me on a November mule deer hunt and got in some sharptail work, but not like what you saw.
Did you have to worry about rattlesnakes?
It was on my mind, but didn't have any run ins. Its something you start to feel more comfortable with once you get out there and start hunting, realizing they're not around every rock you pass.
You can put 5 shots in a semi in Montana??
If you're not hunting migratory birds... Load it up!
@@UplanderLifestyleI will stick to 2 shots lol. Ammo is hard to come by these days lol
what breed of dogs
Brittanys!
I live in Montana and I haven’t hunted sharp tail in years but now my son wants me to take him , do you have any suggestions for a successful hunt?
Hey Roger - thanks for following along! Look for ankle high, thin grassland areas. If there's crop lands around that's a bonus, but not needed. If the grass is too thick or high, the sharptail wont be in it. They like areas with elevation changes, usually sitting on top of the highest points around so they can watch their surroundings. Another piece of habitat to mix in with the grassland is some ditches and canyons where shrubby brush can grow up with chokecherry's, rose hips, and other berry's for food and the ditches also offer cover for the birds to hide in on windy and bad weather days.
Hope this helps! Good luck and happy hunting with your son.
The earlier in the season is better for Sharps. They get real jumpy after Oct 15.
